Overview The R-GAGE sensor emits a well-defined beam of high-frequency radio waves from an internal antenna. Some of this emitted energy is reflected back to the receiving antenna. Signal processing electronics determine the distance from the sensor to the object based on the time delay of the return signal. The sensor can be configured to two independent sensing zones. The two sensing zones are factory pre-set to default distances; they can be reconfigured for different distances using the DIP switches on the back of the sensor. The sensor is plug-in ready for immediate operation. The sensitivity was precalibrated at the factory, assuming that the sensing field will be clear of obstacles. The sensitivity can be adjusted using the DIP switches on the back of the sensor. Figure. R-GAGE features D Zone Zone 2 X Y A Figure 2. R-GAGE setpoint distances B. Power LED: Green (power ON) 2.

Windows The R-GAGE sensor can be placed behind a glass or a plastic window, but the configuration must be tested and the distance from the sensor to the window must be determined and controlled prior to installation. There is typically a 20% signal reduction when the sensor is placed behind a window. P/N 6260 Rev. F www.bannerengineering.com - Tel: +-76-5-6 5
Polycarbonate at mm thickness performs well in most situations, but the performance depends on filler materials. Thinner ( to mm) windows have high reflection. The amount of reflection depends on the material, thickness, and distance from the sensor to the window. Locate the sensor in a position of minimum reflection from the window, which will repeat every 6. mm of distance between the sensor and the window. The positions of maximum reflection from the window repeat between the minimums, and decrease in effect until the window is approximately 50 mm (5.9 in) away. Consult the factory for pre-tested window materials which can be used at any distance without issue. Additionally, the face of the window should be protected from flowing water and ice by use of a flow diverter or hood directly above the window. Falling rain or snow in the air in front of the window, light water mist, or small beads on the face of the window are typically not an issue. However, a thick, continuous surface of water or ice directly on the face of the window can be detected as a dielectric boundary. Weather The R-GAGE sensor can be used in the extreme weather conditions found in port harbors and near oceans. The water in the air does not affect the radar beam, but thick water or ice on the face of the radome can affect performance. In heavy rain or ice conditions, to prevent build-up of water or ice on the radome, use the SAQT50R-96 accessory. This is a hydrophobic end cap that is easily attached over the sensor radome. This end cap, which is field-replaceable, will take the regular wear and tear from port operation to protect the sensor radome and prolong the life of the radar sensor.
